opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of
results for the stated periods have been included. These adjustments are of
a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It
is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of

4. The Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") in June
of the current year to become effective September 1, 1996. Under the
Plan, the Company is authorized to issue up to 2.5 million shares of
common stock for purchase by full-time employees of the Company or
designated subsidiaries who choose to participate. Such number of
shares, which may comprise authorized and unissued shares or shares
reacquired by the Company, represents the Company's present estimate of
the maximum number of shares which may be purchased under the Plan,
which is scheduled to expire no later than December 31, 2006. Under the
terms of the Plan, employees may elect to have up to 8% of their
annual earnings withheld to purchase the Company's common stock
subject to the limit set forth in Section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code. The purchase price of the stock under the Plan will
initially be the lower of 85% of the market price on the first or
last day of an offering period, expected generally to have a
duration of six months.

---------- ---------- -------- --------
</TABLE>
The Oilfield Services segment reported higher sales and operating profit in the
current three and six months compared with the corresponding prior periods.
Overall operating margins were comparable to those of the corresponding prior
periods.
The Industrial Automation Systems segment reported higher sales
and operating profit for the three and six months compared with the
corresponding prior periods. Intermec, the Company's automated data
collection division, benefited from the success of new product introductions
and higher first and second quarter sales under its five-year purchasing
agreement with the U.S. government. Sales and operating profit of the
Company's Manufacturing Systems Group improved over the corresponding prior
periods.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had cash and marketable securities of $47.4 million at June 30,
1996, compared with $116.7 million at December 31, 1995. The cash and
marketable securities balance decreased during the second quarter of 1996 as
a result of working capital needs of the Manufacturing Systems Group and the
expanding Oilfield Services segment. The Company expects that cash flow from
operations, along with available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to meet
strategic objectives as well as working capital requirements. The Company
currently has unused committed credit facilities with a group of banks which
permit the borrowing of up to $400 million.
